ABSTRACT:
A method for estimating power dissipation characteristics of a circuit includes the steps of analyzing predefined artwork data associated with the circuit to determine data on the geometry of a first node; generating capacitance data C.sub.n for the first node on the basis of the geometry data; generating frequency data F.sub.n associated with the first node on the basis of precomputed simulation data; determining voltage data V.sub.n associated with the first node; computing an estimate of power P.sub.n associated with the first node on the basis of the capacitance, frequency and voltage data; repeating the above steps for each remaining node; summing the estimates of power for each node to determine an estimate of total power dissipation P.sub.circuit for the circuit; and generating a report on the computed data.
